LATE DATES
Usually on the last Thursday of the month, we open our doors late for an after hours look at the current exhibition, accompanied by a glass of wine and an informal discussion. It’s a great place to meet new friends and get an alternative point of view.

CRAFTY FAMILY DAYS
One Saturday a month we invite young makers and their family to the National Design & Craft Gallery to take part in a hands on craft workshop that begins with a tour of the gallery, specially designed to get you in the mood for creating!
